Abstract
The performance of a LeCroy CAMAC 2228A TDC and a 2249A ADC have been studied in presence of magnetic fields up to 5000 G. The conversion ga ins of the TDC and ADC increased with magnetic field in a non-linear f ashion which can be adequately parameterized by a fourth-order polynom ial. The behavior of both the TDC and ADC can be completely understood in terms of a change in the inductance of a ferromagnetic core induct or in the 20 MHz clock circuit of these units.
